We are at 22 weeks already, can you believe it! The last month has been a blur! Crazy.... but awesome! Since we are snowed in today (not to mention the fact that we are all under the weather, especially Adelyn... poor thing!), I decided it would be a good day for blogging.
Here is some info about the baby now:
- The fetus reacts to loud sounds.
- Baby starts having a regular sleeping and waking rhythm.
- The mother's movements can wake her baby.
- Taste buds are forming on your baby's tongue.
- The baby is 28cm long (crown to heel) and weighs over 450 grams.
- The weekly weight gain has increased to around 70 grams.
Your baby is about 11 inches long and weighs in at about 1 pound. The eyebrows and eyelids are fully developed, and the fingernails cover the fingertips. Sounds from a conversation are loud enough to be heard by the fetus in the uterus. If you talk, read, or sing to your baby, it's reasonable to expect him or her to be able to hear you.
By this week, your waistline is definitely gone. The top of your uterus is now about 1 inch (3cm) above your bellybutton.
